Hello from PA!

Hey Everyone!

I'm Ashley from Pennsylvania (Schuylkill County)! We are very new to the backyard chicken scene, and we are loving it. It's like an obsession to be honest. We have quite the array of breeds (silkie, buff orpington/rhode island red cross, and rhode island red) and are looking to introduce more into our flock. I have read tons of books and forums prior to diving in, and we seem to be doing well. Any other advice that you could give a first time chicken owner would be great! Thanks!
